Gotta do an oil change as well but I lack the tools to do so so I'll go to my AutoZone equivalent

I just had to do this. Full synthetic + filthy engine filter = RIP bank account.
My Avalon has the 3.5L 6, which Toyota decided needs 6.4 quarts of oil (hello, upcharge) and also designed with a cartridge filter rather than a normal self-contained unit (HELLO, UPCHARGE!). Once in a while they do something that makes me go 'WTF, Toyota?', and this is one of those times.

i have a 2011 Honda Accord and the outside of the car is literally falling off but the engine is in pristine condition.

I drive a Mazda CX-5, so if I don't get full synthetic, I might as well just drive it to the scrap yard straight from the oil change place. I knew what I was getting into when I bought it, so I can only blame myself, but the fuel economy on it is insanely good, so it's a trade off.

I'm very tempted to get a landcruiser 80-100, they're reasonably priced in my native country but to import them to the one I'm living in, gonna be tricky. Fuel economy be damned but I'd like to have a tank of my own, and old gelandewagen aren't that common down here.
